Episode: Trump 2.0 at One Year: Why Democrats May Take Back the House in 2026
Description: One year into President Trump's second term, all eyes are on the 2026 midterm elections. Michael Smerconish is joined by David Wasserman, senior editor and elections analyst at the Cook Political Report with Amy Walter, to break down what the numbers really say about the fight for Congress. From shrinking battleground districts and independent voter drift to inflation, immigration, and the limits of a potential Democratic wave, Wasserman explains why 2026 may look very different from past midterms—and why even a modest seat shift could change everything.
